Welding sequence for 10mm Fillet welds

I need to weld 1500mm long pieces of 10mm 304 Stainless Steel together.
They will be welded into a 'T' section and I will be welding 6" Fillet / 6" Gap / 6" Fillet etc.
Fillet size will be 8mm
Then on the other side I will repeat but weld the fillets where the gaps are on the first side....
Hope I have made myself clear!

What would be the best welding sequence to keep distortion to a minimum?

Does this look like a good weld sequence?
(Drawing is showing a plan view of the 'T' Section)
Only problem I can see is welds 2, 4, 6, 8 & 10 may have to be in the other direction because I can't weld left handed!

Don't weld in a hurry Andy. That stainless will bend like a mutha. If you're not going to preset an opposite bend into it (so it straightens as it cools), then after each stitch, wait for the metal to cool completely, then check for flatness before you carry on. You can also restrain the steel until it's well cooled, and keep your fingers crossed.

My beginnner logic would say that I'd clamp it to something big, and then tack as much as I can before putting down the actual welds. Trying to keep it straight in that way.
Would I be doing it wrong, or what am I missing?

What kit would I need to Stick weld these?
Do you just use electrodes for Stainless?
I am a bit rusty on stick welding
But if it will produce a better finished item, then I will get some practise in to re-acquaint myself with stick welding
